Review: Nexxus Pro-Mend Split End Treatment System


          Split ends are a common problem among people of all ages, however, until now, there has never been a hair system specially targetted at treating and preventing split ends. But then there are also the rumors that everyone hears so many times that they just assume that they're truths...like the only way to get rid of your split ends is to trim it off. Well, not anymore. And plus, who has the time, money, or length to go get their hair trimmed every few weeks? Certainly not everyone with split ends...

         So the first time I saw the ad on TV, I was like, "Yeahh, whatever. Just another product that says it's going to do something and when you use it...poof. Nothing happens." I was kinda sold after seeing the strand of hair get pieced together in the ad though, so after reading a boat load of reviews and deep consideration, I decided to give it a try. I didn't want to switch my shampoo or conditioner, so I only used the daily leave-in cream and overnight treatment cream. Here's what I came up with!

Pros: It actually works, makes my hair a LOT softer and smoother, it helps my hair not get as tangled, makes my hair stronger, and prevents static

Cons: The fragrance (now, this one is debatable. I have read reviews where people have LOVED it, but me, personally? Not my favorite...it's like coconut with some sort of flower or something and I have never been a big fan of coconut, but then again...it's a small thing to deal with), once you stop using it...your split ends come back with a vengeance, sometimes makes hair crunchy (but easily fixed), the price

        Like I said in my "pros" section, it really does work. You might not see it right away, but have patience and you will get the results that you want. I started to see an improvement after about a week...but I guess it depends on each person and how damaged your hair is. It also made my hair extremely soft and smooth, but of course, along with the sleekiness comes the detangling elements. It made brushing my hair a lot easier so that I didn't get more split ends and it also made my hair stronger so that if my hair ever gets stuck in anything (which happens a lot due to the length) or I'm a little rough with it, it can still stay healthy and not break. Also, I don't know how, but my hair didn't get staticy anymore. The fragrance is not my favorite, as I have said, but who knows...maybe you'll love it! Also, when I stopped using it for a while, my split ends came back...and they showed no mercy! It happened so quickly and there seemed to be more...but once I started using it again, things got better. And I apply it when my hair is damp (the daily leave-in one) but when it dries, sometimes a few strands get a little crunchy, but just brush it through with a fine toothed comb and you'll be all fine! However, the price is a little high....but I don't usually use that much and I have a LOT of hair so I really don't think that it's a rip off or anything...definitely worth it.


My Final Decision: If your split ends is something that you are sick of dealing with and want to get rid of it, I say buy these products! The results were great for me and while the price and fragrance are not that amazing...it was worth it. It might take a few weeks, but I didn't use the shampoo or conditioner (I only used the daily leave-in treatment cream and overnight treatment cream) so the results might be better and faster if you use the whole system. But overall, really good products!
